We were craving Hawaiian food yesterday, so we went to Aloha Food Factory around 1-ish. We ordered…read morethe macadamia nut pancakes (2 pcs, $8.99), one Spam Musubi (4 pcs, $5.99), one Kalua Pig Bowl ($9.99), and one Plate Lunch with one entrée ($13.99). I picked the Lau Lau for an extra $1.99. We were told that the pancakes would take a while, maybe around 30 minutes, but my daughters still wanted them because they order them every time we visit. I originally thought only the pancakes would take longer, but all of our food took quite a while. The Spam Musubi finally arrived around 1:35 PM, the plate lunch came about 10 minutes later, and the pancakes were finally served at 1:50 PM. By then, we were starving, so everything tasted delicious. We just wished the vegetables were cooked a little softer since the broccoli was still quite hard. The pork Lau Lau and Kalua pork were both flavorful and tender. Last but not least, my daughters really enjoyed the macadamia nut pancakes. It's definitely their favorite item every time!

I decided to come here because i searched up fried chicken and this place appeared. I came during…read morelunch as i read it might be sold out by dinner. The chicken was lightly battered but seasoned. The sauce it came with was interesting. I prefer it with no sauce but if you use the sauce it starts to grow on you. Mac salad is by scoop. They charge about 3 something for 1 scoop. It was not bad. I felt like it was missing something but not quite sure what. For the chicken, they have 3 options. 6 pieces. Or 4 pieces with either rice or mac salad. All 3 option is about $15. Since they make it fresh, it takes about 15 minutes to make. I noticed alot of people call in to place their orders then pick it up. But that makes sense since you cant dine in. At least they have a few chairs for people to sit on and wait. You can find the fried chciken on the nenu towards the bottom. Parking is not bad its in the same lot as o reileys

They did have a happy hour, but it wasn't anything special and definitely not something you would go out of your way to visit for. My wife and I shared the Loco Moco and a side of brussel sprouts, while my son got the burger and fries. He seemed to really like his burger and fries since he ate everything. My wife thought the Loco Moco was just okay. I probably wouldn't get it again and that's why the one less star. We would probably come here again, but would try something different. But overall, it's a nice place to visit if you're in the area.

Smaller size inside eating area, which can get busy during lunch. Luckily I was ordering to go. Order at the counter and wait for them to buzz your pager. Wait for the food wasn't too long and everything is nicely packaged. We got a chicken teriyaki bowl and teriyaki chicken sandwich. Chicken was cooked nicely (not dry) and nicely dressed with their teriyaki sauce. Their sauce had a distinctive flavor that hasn't changed over the years. I miss Spikes, but B Man is here to keep the memories alive.

I always get the katsu chicken curry and leave very satisfied. However, my last visit left much to be desired. Katsu cutlets should be crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. My katsu was neither. It was FLAT as a pancake, like it was beaten to a fourth of an inch before frying. The panko crumbs added more thickness to the cutlet. The meat was virtually undetectable and then it was sliced into 1/2 inch slivers! It was served over a plate that was mostly rice (the rice was good). The curry was fine. However, I would've liked more sauce and more than one carrot and one potato. B-man's, you're usually so much better than this! I hope things improve.

The hot, flavorful chicken with teriyaki sauce was amazing -- juicy, fresh, and very satisfying. The portion size is huge.

It's a great spot with seating available both indoors and outdoors. There is paid street parking along the road. Overall, a very good place -- we'll definitely be coming back.

They have a small market section where you can grab snacks, sauces, and pantry items, and then a hot food area where they serve ready to eat dishes. I got some pancit, longganisa, and lechon.

Definitely get the sauce with it, it helps cut through the richness. Also grabbed a turon to finish and it was delicious. Left super full and ready to knock out after.

This is a small Market that has a little bit of everything that you're looking for from Southeast Asia. It's like a 7-Eleven, Filipino style. It's fun to look at the various items available here. You will always end up with more than just what you were looking for. I enjoy the cracker nuts, dried mangoes, and specialty dried items. Their selection of items is always changing so I like to look at what's new and on display. I will sometimes ask the front counter what just came in. The Fresh Deli, located up a small incline to the left as you enter the market, is spectacular. The flavor of the food permeates the entrance to the market. They have an incredible selection of fresh made food. It is difficult to make a decision between the different items. I asked for some help from the gentleman behind the counter. I've dealt with Christian, Gabriel and Abraham and all three are knowledgeable and helpful. He was able to explain how some of the food was prepared and the special attention that was given to each individual item. I wanted to limit myself to two items. I decided on the special marinated Beef Caldereta and the Lechon Kawali. On another trip I decided to try the Pork Tochino and the Barbecue Chicken Skewers. I can't tell you how happy I am with the flavors of the food from the deli. Everything was done to perfection. The Chicken skewers were tender and moist with a great barbecue flavor. The Toccino had a nice marinade flavor and was not too sweet. The Lechon was tender and had enough fat to give it a great flavor and texture. I have to admit the Caldereta was my favorite. Great taste, texture, and just the right spices to give it a little kick. The rice and noodles were a perfect accompaniment. All the sauces I was given added to the flavor of all the dishes. At the cash register at the front counter I paid for my items and asked about other items coming in in the near future. I found out that they are not always sure what's going to become available but always looking for something that will make their customers happy. This is truly a family establishment. I found out that everybody there is related. They definitely give exceptional service and quality merchandise, and delicious food. I look forward to coming back and trying many other items both in their market area as well as the Deli.

The food always comes out fast and is better eaten at the restaurant! But on the weekends can get kind of busy.
